Chinese rnd Politics.

The fact that the Manchoo nation rules
the Chinese does not weaken China. The
people, and especially the literati of China,
are loyal to the imperial family just as If
it were Chinese. The emperor Is to mo
the donor of literary rank, and his ances-
tors gave my ancestors literary honors
for seven or eight generations. | owe him
fealty rs the fountain Of my honors. "
Such is n specimen of the way in which
they reason, and IL is an understood thing
that any who, on occasion of a popular
rising at any place, may be acting as chief
magistrates, must die rather than quit
their posts.
To talk politics is in common life not
allowed. The well conducted citizen
pays his taxes, attends TO his own affairs,
and avoids crticising the government. If
he goes 10 take cup of tea in largo tea
shop he sees written up In large characters
"Do not talk politics. The master of the
house wishes his customers TO avoid such
conversation, on his own account as well
as on theirs" People will converse Of
course on political subjects, notwithstand-
ing this injunction, and run the risk or
being observed by some one who may re-
port what they have been heard to say,
with additions The daily newspaper,
too is forcing its way rs an exciting
novelty, and its compact dose Of news,
local and foreign, is growing into a neces-
sity. But the old system is built up on
the absence of political thought ms n
foundation, and IL is considered That this
abstinence from criticism Of the govern
ment Is a duty.-Contempo Review.

GOOD OUT OF NAZARETH.

Secretary Bayard has been SO uni
iormly open to unfriendly criticism since
he assumed control of the department Of
state, that 1t affords the country no little
pleasure to note genuine civil service
reform measure proposed by him. This
measure may not be accepted by the
democracy as at all democratic. 1t
stands a very good show of being inoOn-
tinently condemned by them in express
terms. Little else could be expected OF
the party which has nailed its cOlors to
the mast with the inscriptiOn-"TO the
victors belong the spOils," and whose
watchwOrd since March, 1885, has been,
"Turn the rascals out" None the less
Mr.. Bayard's suggestion is good one.
1t is a suggestion in the direction Of
wise, efficient, stable and intelligent adj
ministrstion of the diplomatic service Of
this government irrespective of the ms
or outs of political parties. The secre-
tary proposes regular system Of civil
service promotions in the diplomatic
corps, with the guarantee Of life en-
plOyment, or during good behavior,
with reasonable compensation for such
services; also q retired list,a in the mill
tary and naval service, with fair pro-
portion of active service salary. The di-
plomatio service OF no other
nation under the sun ia so eX-
posed to the changes and fluctua-
tiOns Of political feelings and panty
directions and dictations as is our Amer
lean diplomatic service. The habit of
changing the whole clerical force Ofthls
government and all its agents on foreign
service, because one presidential candi-
date receives few more votes than an
other is simply mOnstrOus. The duties
devolving upon the diplomatic repre-
sentatives of this government are large
ly learned only by years Of residence
and personal intercourse with those for
eign people to whom such represents
tiVes are accredited, and to change them
without cause other than that of the re-
suit Of home election is the purest nom
sense and very subyersive Of the best
service. Mr.. Bayard's suggestions, if
carried out, and also applied to the con-
sular service as well, would be q long
step forward for this government. A
proper representative acquires influence
and respect with years and more init
mate acquaintance with the people
among whom his duties are to be per-
formed, and each year will render his
services in such place more valuable to
his government. The democracy may
regard Mr.. Bayard's suggestion as demo-
cratic heresy, but the good judgment OF
the American people will approve OF it
as wise move in the direction of an i'm
proved diplomatic service.

EDITORIAL BREVITIEs.

THIS promises to be good year for
building, and still nails are going down.
The nail men of Pittsburg have sched-
uled the price at S2.ll per keg for car
load lots.
Mr.. CLEVELAND can better afford to
declare his intention of retiring to pri-
vate life at the close of his present term,
and declare 1t now, than to have the
democratic party declare it for him No
vember, 1888.
The democrats are trying awfully hard
to make a nOn-political fight on this
purely political question Of prohibition,
which democratic legislature has COM
PEELED the people to vote upon.
The interstate commerce commission
ers have the worst Of il in listening to
the voluminous complaints flooding
them and in endeavoring to reconcile all
interests. 1t Is to be noted, however,
that they pursue their work steadily and
make no complaints.
RIO Mills has not changed front with
some others OF the Texas congressional
delegation, and informs the committee
that he will be on hand at Dallas, May
4th, to assist "the movement which
meets my hearty approval, and / will
be happy to aid In carrying 1t forward
to glorious success"
The Detroit knights of Labor are to
be commended for exercising good COM
mon sense in treating the stove mould
ers strike. The St. Louis strike was in
vestigated, found to be ordered
on unnecessary and insufficient grounds,
aud the Detroit mOulders we're told to
return to work and let St. Louis take
care OF herself The action lie to be COM
mended, and followed.

ONE LIVED, The OTHER DIED.

A woman formerly our slave is now our
cook. About Is months ago she became sickly
and had cough and was confined to bed, and
1t was thought that she had consumption. The
treatment by physicians failed to give relief.
In December, 1884, a node or knot the size of a
goose egg formed just above the pit Of the
stomach, which, when lanced, discharged mat
ter for or months. One of these also
formed under her arm, and three on the back
which discharged matter for a considerable
tine. For six months of this time she was
confined TO the house, and most of the time in
bed. The stomach often refused food, by re-
jecting what she had eaten. She used great
deal of medicine, but failed to be cured. 1
bought one bottle of your Il. Ii. b. (made in
Atlanta, Ca and gave 1t to her, and she com
her three bottles more. and she continued to
improve, and in TWO months time her cough
had ceased. her constitution strengthened
appetite and digestion good. all discharges
ceased, nodes or knots disappeared and she
went to work apparently healthy and fattcned
up greatly.
This woman had a married sister of near the
same age who was affected in precisely the
same way and about the same time. She had
node or knot on pit of stomach, back, etc. She
did not take any B. Il. and the node in
her stomach ate through the cavity. She con-
tinued on the decline and wasted away, and
finally died.
These were two terrible cases of blood poi
sOn-OnC used b. B. b. and was speedily cured,
the other did not use il ana died II is most
assurcdly most wonderful blood phTiiier. |
